Africa
(Marietta Schröder)

Praying and swaying
Running and talking
Telling myself
One day I'll be walking
Somewhere it got to be
One day I'll try the sea
In my mind
It's clear that she will carry me

Africa, land of my longing
Africa, land of my dreams come true
When will I get to see?
When will I get to feel?
When will I reach
Fulfillment of my soul?

Maybe I shouldn't wait
Maybe it would be to late
Maybe I have to start
Before I change my heart
So I am setting off
And now I see the cloud
It's coming up enough
And now - oh now

Africa, land of my longing
Africa, land of my dreams come true
When will I get to see?
When will I get to feel?
When will I reach
Fulfillment of my soul?
